Hi all,

I am trying to import a bioconductor package that depends on a bioconductor
data package. While the command for the software package works fine :

guix import cran --archive=bioconductor ChIPQC

the one for the data package doesn't :

$ guix import cran --archive=bioconductor TxDb.Celegans.UCSC.ce6.ensGene
error: failed to retrieve package information from "
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/TxDb.Celegans.UCSC.ce6.ensGene/DESCRIPTION":
404 ("Not Found")

I tried reading the code in guix for CRAN import, and it seems that the
case for data package has been taken care of (and as a matter of fact there
are already several data packages in the distribution), but I can't find
the way to invoke it.

Thanks for any help!
Philippe.
